*Caroline's POV*

After an almost seven hour drive, I pulled in front of the house that I'd called home for the past eighteen years. I guess it was back to the real world where Klaus was still the bad guy and I was still the good girl.

I shook my head and blinked away tears. I needed my Bon-Bon. A girl's day was definitely in order. I picked up my phone and dialed Bonnie's number. "Hello?" She answered sounding a little...preoccupied. "Judgey, who is it?" Asked a familiar voice that almost sounded like... Damon. "It's Caroline." Bonnie replied. "Ugh. Tell Blondie that you're busy doing...me." He chuckled. "Oh my gosh! Is that Damon?" I practically screamed into the receiver. "Yeah, we were kinda bored when you left and there wasn't an Elena to fix or any originals to kill, so we kinda decided to... entertain one another." She explained quietly. "Sorry, Care, but I have to go." She said apologetically. I rolled my eyes and hung up. Great. Now I was forced to be by myself in my own head. Maybe a nap would let me get away from everything, at least for a few moments.

"Caroline, love, don't cry." Klaus said reaching up to touch my face to wipe away a tear. "What am I supposed to do? She's pregnant!" I screeched. "Fair enough," He admitted, "but you're the one that I want. Just let me talk to you." He pleaded. I stared at him, waiting expectantly, and within seconds, his lips were on mine moving urgently. "No!" I screamed sitting up in my bed, my eyes shooting open. 'Thank God it was just a dream.' I thought to myself. I exhaled deeply with my hand over my chest. Even though I knew it was impossible, I felt as if I was going to have a heart attack. "Sweet dreams?" Klaus asked from the doorway of my bedroom. "Get out of my house!" I yelled running past him, but in a flash, he was in front of me, blocking my way once again. "I'm sorry, love, but I can't do that. I'm in your head. You only see me because you want to see me." He smirked as he stepped closer to me circling around me. "You see, love, you want me, whether you choose to admit it or not. As a matter of fact, you need me." He whispered pushing my hair back, exposing my neck. "And deep down, it kills you that I'm only a figment of your imagination. You want this to be real." He cooed leaning into my neck and softly kissing it. I spun around to face him, but he was gone.

There was a knock on the door. "What?" I groaned rudely as I threw open the door. "Now, love, is that really a way to greet a guest?" Klaus smirked. "Hmmm..." I said pretending to think about it. "no, but then again, you aren't welcome here. Now, get out of my head!" I demanded while attempting to slam the door. He caught the door easily and pushed it open. He looked at me with a puzzled look on his face. "I can assure you, love, I'm not playing with your mind." He swore, tilting his head slightly to the right. "Although I'd like to play with other parts of your anatomy." He added flirtatiously. I crossed my arms, trying to keep myself from blushing at the perverted comment. "Have you been imagining me, sweetheart?" He asked, an arrogant smile illuminating his face. Yup. This was definitely the real Klaus. That cocky smile made it obvious. I rolled my eyes once again motioning to close the door. "You know, Caroline, I could help you." He offered before I could completely close the door. "Just say the word and let me in." He said cockily. "Not happening." I scoffed not hesitating to shut the door this time. I took a deep breath. "That's just great, Caroline. You're dreaming about a psychopathic, sadistic, original hybrid and now, he's standing on your porch." I mumbled to myself. I grabbed a tub of Ben and Jerry's and a spoon on my way to my bedroom. 'At least Ben and Jerry aren't playing baby daddy to a were-whore.' I thought to myself as I stalked off towards my room.

I entered the room, shutting the door behind me and focusing on my cinnamon roll flavored tub of creamy deliciousness. "Hello again, love." Klaus drawled in the accent that managed to make me melt every time. "You must have forgotten that your mother invited me in already." He smiled whilst lying across my bed. "What do you want?" I asked through gritted teeth. "To help, love." He said innocently. "And to apologize for my...indiscretions." He added not so confidently. "Leave." I commanded with tears welling up in my eyes. This hybrid...this damn hybrid knew how to strike a cord with me. "Caroline, just listen, love. That's the only thing I ask of you." He pleaded putting all jokes aside. I closed my eyes, willing the tears to dissipate. "Fine. But explain what's happening to me first." I said giving in and sitting next to him on my bed.

Klaus smiled. "Are you sure you'd like to know?" He asked. "I asked, didn't I?" I snapped with patience running low. "Very well. You have my blood coursing through your veins. Sharing blood is a rather personal affair." He explained. I nodded my head encouraging him to go in. "If blood is shared between two immortals who fancy each other," he motioned to himself and then me, "and then they are separated, the immortals will be plagued by apparitions of one another until they are either reunited or the blood has left their system." He finished.

As if on cue, that's when the tears decided to fall. I began sobbing uncontrollably. He was telling me that because I loved him and we were far apart, I'd be stuck seeing visions of him until we were back together. I couldn't believe it. Not only did I love Klaus but now it would be impossible to stop thinking about him until his blood was no longer in my body and even then I'd struggle to forget about him. Even after the huge bombshell that had just been dropped on me about him and Hailey and their illegitimate puppy child, I still loved him. I already knew that I loved Klaus but this recent discovery made it impossible to deny.

I felt strong arms envelope me. He rested his head on top of mine. "What's wrong, love?" Klaus asked softly planting a kiss on top of my head. "I hate you. I hate that you're everything that I'm not supposed to want but you're everything that I need and I hate that when I'm around you, I feel more alive than ever. Most of all, I hate that I love you. Even though I'm trying so hard not to, even though you've hurt me more in the past two days than I thought possible, I can't let you go and this little blood bond that we have going on just proves that." I cried. "Caroline, sweetheart, you have to understand that I never intended for any of this to happen. It's true. Hailey is having my child. Apparently my wolf genes allow me to procreate, much to my surprise actually. Sweetheart, Hailey was never my first choice. You were. However, nursing one of the many broken hearts that you've left me with resulted in a liquor fueled one night stand. Listen closely, love. I refuse to play daddy to a child born to any woman that isn't you and if that means no children, so be it." He smiled, obviously amused by the notion. "So, I've made a pact with some witches. In return for Hailey and the child's safety, they will help me kill Marcel and take back whats rightfully mine, and after I reclaim my territory, I shall see to it that Hailey and the child never see another day." He said softly.

His finger tips brushed my left cheek, causing me to flinch away. "Caroline, I've waited for a thousand years to feel human again. You make me feel that and I refuse to lose you over some-how did you refer to her?- a were-slut?" We both smiled slightly at that. "Caroline, I haven't ingested your blood but I still see apparitions of you whenever you're not around. Do you know what that proves? That proves that I, Niklaus Mikaelson- the most powerful being on Earth, have a weakness and that weakness happens to be you. Forgive me, love. I'll spend eternity making it up to you. Just forgive me." He requested simply.

I turned to face him. "I'm tired of imagining you." I said, his face falling. "I want the real thing." I confessed before crashing my lips into his. "Don't you ever do something like this again." I hissed breaking the kiss. "Of course not, love. It's a promise." He said before pulling me in yet again.

Maybe it was the fact that his blood was still coursing through my body making me crazy, but I could feel it. I could feel my body giving in to his charms. Every time that he kissed me, my senses came alive. With every touch, came a tingling sensation. With every playful nibble that he placed on my neck (already my sweet spot) came a heightened sense of pleasure. "Klaus!" I moaned throwing my head back in ecstasy, my voice coming out a lot raspier than usual. He broke away from my neck long enough to utter a single statement. "Just say the words, Caroline." He whispered, his voice becoming husky. "Do it." I moaned. "And you're sure? After we do this, there's no turning back." He reminded me. "Nik, shut up and give me what I want." I breathed. He grinned evilly and soon, I was completely entangled with him. Our bodies touched, igniting a spark in each of us. Skin was touching skin and that was the beginning of a long, blissful night full of moans and groans.
